1992 Acura Vigor wont start. Worked the night before and went to start it the following morning and nothing. Wont crank. Had a problem with the alarm about 3 weeks ago and snipped the wires. (my boyfriend also decided to fix the wiring he had cut from the alarm troubles the night before it wouldnt start) I have tried everything...Does anyone know what this might be??

Hi karijo2009,

Thank you for the donation.

It could be related to the alarm, starter, ignition switch or a bad battery . Have you tried jump starting?

Are the dash indicators showing when ignition is turned ON?

Yes, the dash lights are working when the key is turned on but it makes no noise. have checked the battery and all the fuses. All other electrical is working as far as i could see.

Check the starter cut relay located above the left kick panel.

Disconnect the starter solenoid wire and apply battery voltage to it to test the starter. If it works, then it is not the fault of the starter.

Shift to Neutral and test if it works.
